Inclusion criteria
- {"criterion_text":"- 1.\tTrial subject > 18 years.\n- Signed informed consent.\n- Trial subject must be able to understand the participant information.\n- Histologically verified cutaneous or subcutaneous, primary or secondary cancer of any histology.\n- Life expectancy > 3 months.\n- Trial subject can undergo simultaneous medical treatment (endocrine therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, etc.) at any point during the study.\n- Trial subject may have received ECT treatment previously if selected tumours have not received ECT or if a minimum of 3 months after ECT treatment have passed.\n- Trial subject can undergo radiation therapy, provided that the treatment field does not involve the area intended to treat. If the trial subject has received radiation therapy in the area intended to treat, a minimum of 3 months should have passed.\n- A creatinine level within normal upper limit. If creatinine is above normal upper limit the subject needs to have a creatinine clearance > 50 ml/min.\n- Both men and women who are sexually active must use safe contraception. This includes the use of intrauterine device (IUD), oral contraceptives, male or female condom, vasectomy or female sterilization."}
Exclusion criteria

All fertile women will have to deliver a negative pregnancy test before ECT treatment.\n- Allergy or hypersensitivity to bleomycin.\n- Acute lung infection.\n- Severely impaired lung function or any lung condition the investigator deems severe.\n- Any other caution, clinical disease or previous treatments that make the investigator deem the trial subject unfit.\n- The cumulative bleomycin dose must not exceed the by the drug manufacturer recommended maximum dose."}
